Aussie Group Flights Team: Low & Slow - Iceland: Grmsstair to Egilsstadir

Group flights, Aussie style. Aussie Group Flights Team is the ultimate way to explore the world with your favourite people.

Join us as for a tour around Iceland in the plane of your choice. Bear in mind that some of the strips are short and rough. There may be off-field landings on occasion. Finally, as this is Low and Slow, we should limit our cruise to around 80knots.
